Ian Wright MP has joined his colleagues Frank Field MP in urging former BHS owner Sir Philip Green to “do the right thing” by sorting out the former retailer’s pension deficit.

Wright - who chairs the business, innovations and skills committee and co-led the BHS parliamentary inquiry with Field, the chair of the work and pensions committee – told the BBC’s Today program that he was disappointed that Green has not yet bailed out BHS’ pension deficit, which affects as many as 11,000 former employees.
